Whole-body withdrawal is a defensive reflex that is initiated by tactile contact with predators.
Von Frey hairs (4 g) were used to induce whole-body withdrawal.
Stimulation of PeD12 activated whole-body withdrawal and simultaneously inhibited rhythmic feeding movements (example in Figure 2B; n = 6).
As predicted by the hierarchical model, tactile stimuli that evoke whole-body withdrawal responses also inhibit ongoing feeding in the presence of feeding stimuli.
Extensive electrophysiological and anatomical investigations ([ 4 6]; Figure S2) show that the feeding and whole-body withdrawal circuits operate as autonomous units, consistent with the Tinbergen model.
Crucially, PeD12 also plays an important role in driving the whole-body withdrawal behavior, and it is responsive to strong tactile stimuli that evoke the defensive behavior.
Finally, we showed that there were no synaptic connections between PlB and motoneurons of the withdrawal-response network; therefore, PlB has no role in the control of whole-body withdrawal responses.
A burst of spikes artificially evoked in PeD12 by current injection resulted in a single large contraction of the columellar muscle, which is known to cause touch-induced whole-body withdrawal responses [ 4].
We provide evidence for this by investigating the interneuronal mechanisms mediating behavioral choice between two autonomous circuits that underlie whole-body withdrawal [ 4, 5] and feeding [ 6] in the pond snail Lymnaea.
As predicted by the Tinbergen hierarchical model of behavioral choice [ 2], tactile stimuli that evoke whole-body withdrawal responses in Lymnaea significantly inhibit feeding even in the presence of a strong feeding stimulus.
